All written BY IVAN LIM: 

4. Borrowing money

Borrowing money is never an easy thing.

Repaying the money and kindness is even more difficult. 

Petty people borrows money without the intention to repay. 

If you do not lend petty people money they will criticise you

in an unfair manner. If you do, you will lose the money.

5. Corporate players

Intimidation, dishonesty, politics and apple polishing

are all part of the corporate game...

you either like it, hate it...or is forced to live with it.

Its unaviodable.There are however, good corporate players

and cheap ones.

6. Dirty lawyers and nasty clients

Dirty lawyers made law practice pretty sick. 

Nasty clients killed it.

If the lawyer next door can give you a cheaper rate..go to him. 

Please close the door when you leave. 

7. Ignorance

Ignorance is "darkness". But sometimes ignorance helps you too.

8. Lonely?

I am always alone with my computer ...

but not neccessarily lonely. 

9. Talking big

People who talks big intends to impress or intimidate people

by just talking big. Sometimes it works. 

But most of the time..what you get is bad reputation. 

10. Back stabbing

Back stabbing is an evil art. However for some buisness man

it is a form of survival  skill. 

Politics and dirty tactics can't survive without the deployment

of this skill. 

11. Desires

It is true that every one one  has desires...

but a wise man knows how to control them well. ..

or at least his life is not controlled by such desires. 

12. Wrestling

Most people knows that wrestling on TV is about "show acting"...

however, they still love it. Same goes to football. 

12. Successful habits

The successful corporate players have right connections....

skills and techniques may be hired. 

Some corporate players only have  woman, golf and

gambling in their minds.     

13. Demanding clients

Certain client demands the best from you but...

insists on paying the least...

Decide if these people are selfish, smart or simply annoying.  

14. Incompetency

Incompetent workers can either be too quiet or too noisy.

Responsible and attentive workers pay more attention to work.

Gossipers like to call others "gossipers".

"Gossiper" focuses their attention on other people's weaknesses

and shame. 

You may learn to avoid the same weakness...

and not spreading the gossips.

Some people tells only half truth . It is also a half lie.

Critiscising some one should be done in a useful

and constructive way.

Other wise it is better to remain silent (shut up).

Some people open their mouth for the sake of being heard ...

He can either be an idiotic fool or a dirty politician.

When you begin to lose friends and dislikes the things

around you..the problem may be you your self.

Incompetent fools (dirty politicians included) have the liking 

of demoralising and intimidating others...

to get that precious sense of security. 

These people thrives in times of uncertainty and

will take advantage of your unfortunate circumstances. 

They speak with an evil tounge and has no good intention. 

True character comes from your ability to handle pressure

and performing under all circumstances...

people who dissapears at crucial moments and

puts the blame on others do not have what it takes.

You can either be the leader or follower

under such circumstances.

Poeple who runs away has no true sense of responsibility.

Money can't buy you certain things... true.

But without money you cant pay your bills.

Strike a balance. This is the real world.

It is actually hard to judge a person.

We sometimes are deceived by looks and social skills. 

A true friend will not manipulate you for their own interests. 

Perfectionists are not neccessarily pleasant people. 

Not all beginners have luck. Some give up.

You only want to look cool.But you are uneasy with the coolness.

We will win some and lose some...thats the general rule.

But sometimes we lose all. Accept that fact too.

Stubborn people only sees things the way they wanted things

to be.

Sometimes they will ask you for your opinion

... but what they want is you to say "yes you are right".

Only assholes will like assholes ...

(politically incorrect..but it is true).

People with an asshole mentality will gradually

end up in a shit hole and be flushed.

Dont even try to impress me with all that philosophy stuff. 

You gotta learn to deal with basic stuff first, kiddy. 

Different people have different skills...

i see that you have extra ordinary skills

in cheating your self and believing that others

will be cheated as well. 

These skills are quite rare nowadays. 

RICH KIDS are not neccesarily bad people...

it depends on up bringing and personality.

I am not a RICH KID... but i have nothing against them.

Some of them are very humble and hard working. 

As friends we don't normally talk about riches or money. 

Mr X.  has no personality. 

But he has acting skills. I didnt say it is good acting skills. 

People who likes to be seen as a RICH KID

has personality problems.

They get their "high" by driving cheap sports car and 

behaving like pimps.

I support Arsenal, the football club...but I dont own the club.

Cocky looking players are beyond my control. 

Hot tempered people are not neccesarily bad people.

But they TEND TO irritate others .

People who likes to provoke them are no better.

We are here to be educated...please do not insult us.

If you intend to settle your outstanding legal fees...

do it nicely(Manglish)...dont attach conditions to such payments.

You owed me the money...it is my right to demand for payment.

I have given you FOUR YEARS to settle the bill.

We have exercised extreme patience...

and acted on humane grounds.

INTERNATIONAL AFFAIRS

It is true that Americans are behaving like the world's 

Big Brother.

They impose their values on you...

while neglecting to uphold their own.  

Big time hypocrite and bully... 2 in 1. 

If only Singaporeans could change their mentality...

they will get some peace in their minds. 

My second home is Thailand...

Why? cos Malaysia is my first home. 

There is nothing much for me to write about Thai prostitutes...

I am not interested in that job. 

I am glad to a be a Malaysian..even though my only brother

thinks that having American citizenship is better.  

Singaporeans feel superior up north.  

First the Red Indians, then slavery and recently Afghanistan...

they are still at it at Iraq. 

Americans lost the  war in Korea and claimed

that no body won the war.
